Inspired by the year Wilson's School was founded, The 1615 Club is our new alumni regular giving programme which encourages Old Wilsonians to support the school on a recurring monthly basis.

To join The 1615 Club, participants must simply commit to donating £16.15 or more per calendar month through our new, easy to use two-click JustGiving portal.

Why It Matters

All money raised through The 1615 Club directly supports the maintenance and growth of our fantastic co-curricular offering at Wilson's.

Generations of alumni have enjoyed CCF, Chess, Drama, Football, Rugby, Music, Badminton, Debating, Table Tennis, Duke of Edinburgh, school trips, and much more at Mollison Drive.

Members of The 1615 Club are directly supporting the opportunities they themselves enjoyed during their school careers, and also ensuring all current students – regardless of their family’s own financial situation – are still able to access all co-curricular opportunities at Wilson’s free of charge.

Membership

Whilst different donation amounts are welcomed, participants in the programme typically come in at one of five levels. These tiers are listed below -

Benefits

Every member of The 1615 Club will receive invitations to alumni events, key news from the school, and development updates.

This includes thrice yearly networking drinks in the city, and a special invitation (and a plus one) to an annual drinks’ reception on or around the school’s birthday – 29th September – hosted at Mollison Drive.

These events offer the opportunity to reconnect with fellow Old Wilsonians, network with attendees in a similar field, and stay closely connected with the school, hearing of its upcoming plans and recent progress.

Members of The 1615 Circle will also have access to an additional, exclusive event organised by the development office.

An inaugural event celebrating the launch of The 1615 Club is scheduled for late Spring 2026 - details to follow soon on the school website and social media.
